Definition

An endearingly dorky insult for someone acting foolish or clueless, with all the bite of a declawed kitten. Perfect for when someone's being ridiculous but you still love them. The PG-rated way to call out silly behavior without starting actual beef.

Example Usage

Don't be such a doofus—the meeting is at 3 PM, not 3 AM!
